Beholder is a story-driven strategy and adventure game from Warm Lamp Games, published by Alawar, set in a grim totalitarian state. You play Carl, a landlord installed by the government in an apartment block, and your job is to spy on your tenants: plant cameras and wiretaps, search their flats while they are out, and report anything suspicious. The hard part is the choice: protect your own family, help the people you watch, or obey the state, knowing every decision changes how the story ends on your Mac.

Key Features

  • Play a state-installed landlord spying on his own tenants
  • Plant bugs and cameras, and search apartments when tenants are away
  • Moral choices with real consequences and multiple endings
  • Hand-drawn, atmospheric art style with a dark dystopian mood
  • Complete quests for the state or for the tenants, at a price

  1. Make sure your Mac meets the game's modest requirements below.

  3. Install it through Steam, launch the game, and start your first shift in the apartment block.

FAQs

Is Beholder a long game?

A single playthrough takes a few hours, but the branching choices and multiple endings are designed to make replaying worthwhile, since different decisions lead to very different outcomes.

Is it only about spying?

Spying is the job you are given, but the game is really about choices: you can report tenants, blackmail them, warn them or help them, and the story reacts to what you do.
